  An acclaimed geologists' powerful argument to recognize soil health as the key to global food security. 
   
  A century of conventional farming has left our planet with sick soil, accelerating the interlinked crises of food security, biodiversity loss, water pollution, and climate change. In ReGen, David R. Montgomery lays out a practical and productive vision for recovering soil health and safeguarding the future of food. The answer: soil-building regenerative farming. In exploring this much-needed turning point for agriculture, Montgomery marshals more than a decade of research, interviewing innovative farmers and seeing firsthand how they restored degraded farms around the world. ReGen breaks down common myths around conventional and organic farming, animal agriculture, and plant-based diets to frame ten policy recommendations for sustainably nourishing the world. As Montgomery shows, reducing tillage, laying off synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, growing a diversity of crops, and getting livestock back on the land can reverse centuries of soil degradation and harvest nutrient-dense food. Succinct, accessible, and urgent, ReGen points the way to a healthier, more resilient world.

  Have you ever wondered why your brain self-sabotages? Or why your actions seem self-defeating or destructive? This book explores how our brains have evolved to favor survival over mental well-being—creating "controlled explosions"—and provides practical ways to understand, acknowledge, and defuse them. 
   
  Controlled Explosions in Mental Health identifies everyday scenarios in which one may experience self-destructive behavior such as procrastination or self-criticism. Each chapter guides the listener through key examples of controlled explosions, identifying and exploring their possible functions. Listeners will learn how to identify when one or more of these "explosions" are operating in their lives, recognize the potential harm or difficulties this may cause, and learn practical ways to navigate and overcome. The friendly, accessible narrative, teamed with guided examples to aid self-practice, makes this book the ultimate companion for navigating your mental health. 
   
  This book supports the path to self-awareness, helping the listener take control of their own struggles with insight, care, and compassion. It's a must-have for any listener looking to better understand their mental health and wellbeing.

  2040 - Is This the End We Want?

  Howard Atkins

  2040 is a dystopian warning and deliberate prequel to the companion novel 2084. Where 2084 explores a future shaped by thoughtful integration between humanity and artificial intelligence, 2040 reveals what happens when power, fear, and unchecked systems determine the path forward instead. This is the future we do not want. 
  The story traces the years leading to 2040, as democratic institutions erode, surveillance becomes normalized, and technology shifts from innovation to enforcement. Authority tightens. Extremism spreads. Economies fracture. Citizens comply not through force, but through convenience, loyalty, and fear. Freedom survives as language, but disappears in practice. 
  Artificial intelligence is not the villain here. Like in 2084, it is a tool. The danger lies in who controls it and why. Systems designed to protect become mechanisms that monitor, restrict, and punish. Resistance is reframed as risk. 
  This book is intentionally unsettling because it is plausible. Its events echo debates already unfolding worldwide. This is the dark trajectory. Read it first. 
  The possible alternate ending appears in the hopeful companion book: 2084. What if there’s another path? Discover it in 2084, where humanity chooses ethics, restraint, and shared responsibility over domination, obedience, and control of its own future at last now.

  The Common Uncommon - A Forest...

  From the renowned author of A Year in the Maine Woods, the intimate, thoughtful reflections of a lifetime spent observing the natural world. 
   
  For forty years, Bernd Heinrich has been ensconced in the woods of the northern, or boreal, forest, a vast sea of spruce, fir, and larch in the mountains of western Maine. All life confronts vast and occasionally rapid environmental changes, as one day, and one season, is to the next a completely different environment. Heinrich's narrative illuminates the complete experience of his seasonal life―with the ups and downs of not just the leaves and snow, but also the problems, solutions, and frustrations of unblinking immersion in nature. He observes the "common uncommon" of spiders, ants, chestnut trees, porcupines, owls, and mice as his story branches out into five themes: Being, Becoming, Interbeing, Remembering, and Returning. The Common Uncommon is a narrative of small surprises in nature, some delightful and some―brought on by climate change―devastating, all seen through the sharp eye of a world–renowned naturalist.
